I'm using Lynx 2.8.4rel.1 to access gmail. It works great, but if I
try to send an email without an attachment, it tells me:

That's a rather old version (2.8.6 is current).
Since 2.8.5, file-uploading has been a workable option.


Alert!: Can't open file for uploading

and won't let me post the mail. Attaching /dev/null works, but is kludgy.

In other words, it forces me to attach a file even if I don't want
to. I'm guessing this happens on all forms with 'file' input types,
but haven't tested.

Would upgrading help?

yes...
